Draining the drive unit (SX)
1.
Place the drive unit in the
run (down) position. Put a con-
tainer under the drive unit to catch the draining oil.
2.
Remove the oil drain plug and the oil level dipstick.
3.
Allow the drive unit to drain completely. Dispose of used oil
according to applicable environmental regulations.
Filling the drive unit (SX)
1.
Remove the three screws securing the rear cover to ac-
cess the oil level plug.
2.
Remove the oil level plug.
3.
Fill the drive unit with Volvo Penta DuraPlus GL 5 Syn-
thetic Gear Oil. Fill through the oil drain plug location. Fill
slowly to purge air. The drive unit is properly filled when
the oil appears at the oil level plug hole.
4.
When filled to the proper level, install the oil level dipstick
and oil level plug first (to prevent excessive oil loss), then
the oil drain plug.
5.
Tighten oil level and drain plugs securely.
6.
Install the rear cover and tighten screws securely.
If you cannot fill the drive unit through the oil drain plug, you
can fill the drive by trimming it up a few degrees and filling it
through the oil level plug. Reinstall the oil level plug, and place
the drive in the run (down) position. Remove the dipstick and
check the oil level. Reinstall the dipstick and tighten securely.
Check the oil level with the dipstick (oil must appear on the full
range of the dipstick). Add oil if required through the dipstick
hole. Refer to
Specifications pages drive unit oil capacity.
If the drive unit was filled through the oil level plug, wait 15 min-
utes before checking the oil level with the dipstick. Leave the
dipstick loose during the waiting period. This will help ensure
all air is purged from the oil cavity.
